. V y . PEACE POINT POPE PIUS XII l But even the best-and most detailed regula- tions will be imperfect and foredoomed to failure unless the peoples and those who govern them submit willingly to the influence of that spirit which alone can give life, authority, and binding force to the dead letter of international agree- ments. They must develop that sense of deep and keen responsibility which .measures and weighs human statutes according to the sacred and in- violable standards of the law of God, they must cultivate that hunger and thirst after justice E' which is proclaimed as a beatitude in the Ser- mon on the Mount and which supposes as its c, 1 natural foundation the moral virtue of justice, they must be guided by that universal love which is the compendium and most general expression of the Christian ideal, and which tlierefore may 4 l. , ' serve as a common ground also for those who have not the blessing of sharing the isame faith l I 4 with us.

Pope Pius XII. If rulers themselves would be guided by Chris- tian principles, they would be able to extend their authority in a more Christian-like manner to the people. The moral law must guide the entire world if true peace is to reign. Our Catholic youth in the high schools of to- day at the head of activities and organizations are guided by proper principles while they are in the Catholic high school. This training should fit them to be leaders-true leaders-in this world of followers. We need more Catholic leaders- the type that take Christ as their ideal. We need the kind that have strong moral strength, not only to abide by these principles, but to lead right way. Their training in the Catho- school should give them this strength. the supervision of teachers and they have many opportunities for application. We hope they will carry Catholic principles with them and the peace that is direly needed and prayed for by all sincere peoples of S ENCCUNTERED

VERA BERTEL--AS one of the high scorers of the season, Bert', has proved to be an asset on the girls, team, not for one year, but for four. She was one of the best forwards on the team! ANNA MAE CUPKA-In the case of Chup, it can be said that good things come in little packages. The girls, aims were kept up, while that of the opponents were discouraged when she guarded. LOUISE GRALKA-An all-around athlete is Louise. Her adroitness in shooting and passing displayed great basketball ability. Without her the girlls team would be minus an excep- tional forward. BERNICE HAID-Practically in every game Beckie'l was' the high scorer. For two years, she has been the first string member. Everyone will remember her in her role as forward. KATHLEEN HOLLAND-Having been a student manager last year, Kay,' was so impressed with the girls' ardent efforts that she joined the playing team this year. The bruises she received from guarding her opponents so well showed her sincere desire to reach the goal. DOROTHY KR,APPW'EIS-A promising athletic career lies ahead of Porky.H Although a sophomore, she plays the role of guard with admirable dexterity. When she becomes a senior basketball player, she will have reached the height of perfec- tion in the athletic field. ALLENE RAY--Encouraging and cheering our girls to victory, Kibby,', the student manager this year, had a unique system. She performed her duties faithfully. MARY ALICE SCHULTzf- Jill a senior forward, aided the team by her exceptional -passing ability. She never gave up, but fought and strove to win to the end of the games. RITA MAE SINGER-Many a time have the dancing eyes and acute vision of Rit kept the opponents from chalking up a point. When' it came toguarding, she was indispensable. RUTH NVILI-IELM-AlIil'1Oug'h small in stature, 'fPeanuts was the epitome of pep and zeal. Her encouragement to the other players goaded the girls to real play. WITH A V Stanley Bielewicz, Coach O O Standing: Lois Knorr, Betty Borbonus, Anna Schmitt Stooping: Dorothy Snyder, Rita Bechtold, Rose Styles As the season of sports opened, our e-- sixe hep little misses started right in cheering and encouraging the teams on to win when they were battling it out on the basketball court. In rain or shine, whenever there was a game they would be seen running on the basketball floor and cheering in their bright gold sweater with a blue M offsetting it, and whirling royal blue skirts. A few new cheers were added to their repertoire this year. Now for a personal note about our cheerleaders: Anna Schmitt, the brown-eyed senior whose cheering and confidence has aided greatly in en- couraging the team. Betty Borbonus, senior, with her sparkling smile and energetic cheering has aided the team to victory many times during her two years as cheer- leader. Farewell and good luck to these two girls who are leaving us this year. Rita Mae Bechtold and Lois Knorr, juniors, were always at the games cheering with all their might. To the two new sophomore cheer- leaders, Rose Styles and Dorothy Sny- der, we say: Hope you do as well during the next two years as you did so farf' ' 37 l
